Marconia Radio International slated for September 8 broadcast

Waiting on my QSL for this station - maybe in a few days it will come in, as promised :)Gayle VH

Here is the schedule
for the next Thursday transmissions of MRI on 8 September 2016:1700-2000 UTC on 7700 kHz (USB mode) and 2015-2130 UTC on
9300 kHz (USB Mode).

As you
may be already aware we recently moved our weekly broadcasts from Wednesday to
Thursday. Our broadcasts include some kind of programmes now sadly missing
from most shortwave radio stations: an old style DX show in
English “Italian
Short Wave Panorama” (there is also the
Italian version called “Panorama
Onde Corte”) with lot of recent
logs as well as a mailbag show (“La Posta
degli ascoltatori”) in Italian. As from 8
September a music show in Italian will also be aired. Our station
identification announcements are not only in English and Italian but also in
French, German, Romanian, Spanish and Catalan.

For the
first time in our history a Facebook page about our station has been introduced.
It is called "MRI World" and can be found at this web address: https://www.facebook.com/mriworld - Although
it is still far from being completed you can leave your comments and
suggestions as well as like it!

Last but
not least, we need your help! If you use social networks, please post an
announcement on Facebook or send out a tweet the day before the broadcast. You
can also forward this message to a friend. This should help increase our
potential audience.

We hope to
hear from a lot of shortwave listeners about our transmissions.
